A cult classic turns 40, and we've gotta cover it!
We (can and definitely did) get enough of The Stuff!
What is the direction Michael Moriarty was given? Who sliced this thing to ribbons? What's the deal with The Stuff? Is it frozen? Cold? Yogurt? Ice Cream?!
All this and more!
We’re going to a new schedule: the 1st of the month on Patreon for $5 and up members, and the 15th on the main feed.

#303 The Witches
It's a movie that scarred Tripp for life: Roald Dahl's The Witches!
How amazing is Anjelica Huston!? How great are these Henson effects?! Why did Roald Dahl want a bleak-ass ending?!
All this and more!

#302 Teen Wolf
AoooooOOOOOooooOOOO!
Sorta-kinda starting the spooktacular early with Michael J. Fox carrying a limp movie to success: Teen Wolf! What's with the desire to do hand stuff with a wolf man? Why is this so prevalent in films? Did Gaston's death tank the economy of a poor provincial town?
All this and more!

#301 The In-Laws (Clip)
Coming in a couple of days late, it's a new-to-both-of-us pick from Patreon supporter Michele: The In-Laws!
Why on earth were there not half a dozen movies with Adam Arkin and Peter Falk, and a couple of sequels to this movie?! Truly off the charts chemistry between these two.

#300 The Breakfast Club
Mama mia, 300 episodes! Insane to have been doing this for 11 years and 300+ episodes. Thank you all for listening!
We had to do a BIG one for this, and what better re-visit than John Hughes' coming-of-age classic? This is a movie with some *electric* performances, but oof-a-doof some rough moments.

Tripp and Andrew Laino have been watching movies together since 1992, and making fun of them together since 1999, when a rainy afternoon of babysitting turned into 8 hours of cheesy science fiction and jokes. Raised on a strict diet of 80s movies, the pair have an undying love for the decade and all of the weird, wonderful cinema therein, despite barely being there for it. Every other week (since 2014) they dissect a movie and the bizarre cinema quirks of 30-odd years ago.
